This would be a nice feature, especially when working with branches or
tags wheres sometimes the question arises if there has ever been such
a branch or tag before which got deleted later.

Currently the only possibility seems to be doing a full "svn log" and
grep.

When implementing such a feature there should also be some information
if an earlier version was of the same type as the current element
(regular file, directory, special file/symbolic link).
